About us
Good Shepherd Community Care is one of the most trusted health care organizations in Greater Boston focusing on hospice and palliative care. Founded as Hospice of the Good Shepherd in 1978, we are the original Massachusetts hospice. After decades of caring for our community, we continue to remain an independent, not-for-profit, non-sectarian organization. We have long been aware of the profound and unique needs of people facing the final stage of life – their own, or that of a loved one. Throughout the years, members of the community have come to see us as an important resource as they navigate this transition. At the heart of our mission is enhancing the quality of remaining life, so that those in the final stage of life can live as fully, independently, and comfortably as possible. Our programs are reflective of that mission. Good Shepherd believes in the importance of mutual respect and acceptance and values diversity in our patients, families and caregivers, employees, volunteers, community, and partner organizations. We are committed to these values and honor the dignity of each individual through the care, support and education we provide.

This week is Palliative and Advanced Care Week! Palliative care provides an extra layer of support for patients and their families. It helps patients have a higher quality of life while receiving treatment for serious illness. Palliative care also helps patients’ doctors talk to one another, promoting coordinated care that optimizes the patient experience. At any stage of serious illness, palliative care can help.

"The whole goal of (pediatric) palliative care is to, while caring for the child and treating the underlying condition, ensure that we're also thinking about the child's wellbeing, quality of life, and that of the family as well," Wolfe said. Watch the full interview: https://lnkd.in/etUEcH37

Maritime Behavioral Health Management had the pleasure presenting a $10,000 check yesterday to Good Shepherd Community Care towards Camp Erin. Camp Erin is a FREE bereavement camp for families and youth who are grieving the death of a significant person in their lives. Jennifer Wiles and staff are very thankful for the donation made possible by All Hands on Deck Charity Golf Tournament held last month. Thanks to all who played who helped make this possible.
